This is me and my wife - the one who led me to the buttered potatoes.

My son and some of his friends

All the friends together

Yes...I couldnt believe it either - i went on a thrill ride!!!

The Middlesex County Fair - No buttered potatoes...

My wife told me that when we go to county fairs, there are sure to be buttered potatoes. I packed the circus in the minivan, sped to the fairgrounds, only to find the usual assortment of fried goodies (zeppolis, funnel cake, pizza), but no buttered potatoes. I felt let down...however only for a short while.

We took our kids on so many rides, walked around with the twins and had a real blast with other friends who had come down for the same thrills (minus the buttered potatoes).

Lesson is: You can have fun even though you dont get your boiled potatoes with butter...
